JOE BIDEN OFFICIATES SAME-SEX WEDDING FOR WHITE HOUSE STAFFERS

Vice President Joe Biden officiated
a wedding Monday for two longtime White House staffers.

The marriage
of Brian Mosteller and Joe Mahshie was the first time
Biden officiated a ceremony, the vice president’s office told CNN
in a statement. Biden obtained a temporary certification from the District of
Columbia.

“Proud to marry
Brian and Joe at my house,” Biden tweeted. “Couldn’t be happier, two longtime
White House staffers, two great guys.”

Mosteller
serves as special assistant to the president and director of Oval Office
operations. Mahshie is a trip coordinator for Michelle Obama, according to his
LinkedIn profile.

The wedding was
attended only by the immediate family, NBC reported. The ceremony
took place at the vice president’s residence on the grounds of the U.S. Naval
Observatory in Northwest Washington.

Biden’s wife,
Jill, tweeted, “Love is love!” in response to her husband’s tweet.

The vice president’s tweet had
more than 16,000 retweets and 50,000 likes by late Monday ― further evidence
that Biden will be sorely missed when the Obama administration leaves office
next year.
